The field is 12 bytes long and each byte is an ASCII character. This number is the same unique number that is returned from the drive over SCSI when an Inquiry Command (Page 80H) is issued. The number is retrieved directly from the drive so the number that the drive reports matches the number that the library reports. If the drive serial number is less than 12 bytes, the rest of the bytes will be zero filled. Media Domain The Media Domain field indicates the type of media in the element. 01h = Contains a DLT form factor cartridge 4Ch = Contains a LTO form factor cartridge FFh = The media domain cannot be determined 2- 188 Chapter 2
